Welcome to Wikipedia. An article you recently created may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for new articles, so it will shortly be removed (if it hasn't been already). Please use the sandbox for any tests you may want to do and please read our introduction page to learn more about contributing. Exploding Boy 17:46, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

You should wait for others to write an article about subjects in which you are personally involved, as you did at Grand Rapids, Michigan. This applies to articles about you, your achievements, your business, your publications, your website, your relatives, and any other possible conflict of interest.

Creating an article about yourself is strongly discouraged. If you create such an article, it might be listed on articles for deletion. Deletion is not certain, but many feel strongly that you should not start articles about yourself. This is because independent creation encourages independent validation of both significance and verifiability. All edits to articles must conform to No original research, Neutral point of view, and Verifiability.

If you are not "notable" under Wikipedia guidelines, creating an article about yourself may violate the policy that Wikipedia is not a personal webspace provider and would thus qualify for speedy deletion. If your achievements, etc., are verifiable and genuinely notable, and thus suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later. (See Wikipedians with articles.) Thank you. ''In this case, adding your own name ot the Grand Rapids, Michigan article isn't considered appropriate, because there are literally thousands, if not tens of thousands of executives in the greater Grand Rapids area. Notable would be: famous athletes, authors, Jerry Ford, etc., not one's self. Thanks, '' Curran (talk 18:22, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
